This chapter of the "story" has a happy ending (so far), but what Philip and many others were protesting is still happening. Continue to remember the people of Gaza, as well as the thousands of individuals still being held in Egyptian prisons for refusing to stay silent, including a second blogger who was arrested only days after Philip.

"A dream worth having: To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never, to forget."-Arundhati Roy, from her speech entitled "Come September"
